The right way to lift and move things …

Every day, thousands of people lift thousands of tons of goods – the wrong way. Using Newton for ergonomic lifting and moving saves your strength and reduces industrial injuries and time away from work.

Give your body a break – and lighten the mood at work!

Lifting and moving – often in inappropriate working positions – constitute one of the most common causes of back and muscle pain, and can even lead to chronic strain injuries. And of course, having a job that causes aches and pains doesn’t exactly promote well-being and happiness at work.

The great ergonomic health challenge

More than half of all working days lost to health issues are caused by injuries to muscles, joints or the skeletal structure – known within the EU as MSD (musculoskeletal disorders). More than 40 million workers in Europe suffer from MSD. These injuries (not including accidents) cost employers a sum equivalent to 0.5–2% of the GDP for the whole of the EU, posing “A significant strain on the EU’s economy”. Dealing with the issue of MSD is one of the biggest health challenges facing Europe today.

The Newton lifter never compromises

Newton is a safe choice when it comes to ergonomics. The equipment makes lifting as safe and simple as possible. It ensures flexible handling of all kinds of goods, and the lifter is easy to adapt to different types of lifting tasks.Offices, factories, hospitals, warehouses, workshops, retail stores, stockrooms and schools are all places where Newton can take care of the heavy work and eliminate the biggest cause of musculoskeletal disorders – and make work processes more efficient at the same time.

Newton not only saves money on reduced absence due to illness, it also boosts ordinary productivity.
